BERLIN Dec. 3.-The severest contest during
the session of the Reichstag will be that over the
bill making the legislative period five instead of
three years. Although brought in by the lead
ers of the Conservatives and National Liberals,
the bill is practically a government affair The
official organs support the proposal strongly. on
the ground that 1t will relieve the people of the
disturbing in fiuence OF often-recurrng elections,
while giving greater moral independence to Par
lament. The Progressists denounce the meas
ure as assaing the prerogative of the electors
and weakening the nations voice in the councils
of the government There will be a fierce and
envenomed fight before the m easure passes. but
it will pass with a solid majority, about equaling
the septennate vote. The relative strength of
parties differs little from what ir at the be-
ginning of last session. The Conservatives num-

LONDON Dec. 3.-The election of NJ Sardi-
Carnot to the presidency of the French republic
without the slightest disturbance attests the in
cate strength of the republic and the confidence
of the psopls therein From the moment that
NJ. Crews resignation was assured the
Republican groups made common cause
against the Monarchists, who in spite
of the fact that they really never had
any show. stood out against the forlorn
hope that something might be done to dsin-
tegrate their opponents at the last moment. The
hope of the Monarchsts was that the election
might result in the choice of De Freycinet or
Ferry. neither of whom is strong enough to rep
resent France, and that the weakness of either
would necessitate another election, with
better chances for themselves Both
Freycinet ana Ferry failures in the
office of Premier; both hated and despised

plainly apparent that had either been successful

BERLIN, Dec. 3.-Oficia, and diplomatic cir
Giles in Berlin were absorbed in to-day's develop
ments in Paris, but the public interest was not
at all strained. An unceasing stream of tele-
grams poured into the Foreign Office and the
details Of the voting at Versailles were sent
without delay to Friedrichsruhe. The election
of M. Sadi Carnot is better received in official
circles than would have been that of NJ De
Freycinet NJ. Ferry. The Pres
ident is considered to be a feeble man
and one who would be unwilling TO consent to
complications which might bring about Euro
pean war. It is also believed that he will be
unable to make alliances against Germany. His
personal preferences are for a neutral, pacific
policy, and he will try to govern through Min
istry with the same tendencies. kilograms re-
ceived here from the German embassy at Paris
record the gratifying fact that. though 1t was
considered necessary to guard the approaches TO
the embassy. everything was peaceful during
